“…Social media often address the subject of appearance, creating the ideal of a beautiful figure, which, when confronted with reality, can become a cause of lack of acceptance of oneself and one's body, and it is related to the development of eating disorders [16][17][18]. Therefore, it is important to develop preventive programs on the risk factors of eating disorders, and to sensitize parents to observe their child, teach them to think critically in order to reduce the negative influence of social media, and recognize worrying symptoms present in a child/teenager [17].…”

Introduction: Anorexia increasingly affects younger children, and its treatment is a long-term process in which people suffering from the disease, as well as their caregivers, experience many, often negative emotions. In this context, it is important to support caregivers, especially with information, and to understand their behaviour and emotions. The aim of this study was to study the reactions and emotions experienced by parents of children with anorexia or suspected anorexia, and how they are controlled, as well as their opinions regarding support. Material and methods: The study was conducted on 40 parents using a diagnostic survey method, a questionnaire technique, and a scale technique. The author's survey questionnaire, which included questions about reactions and experienced emotions with regard to the child's disease and its course, support, and socio-demographic data, and the Courtauld Emotional Control Scale (CECS) adapted by Juczyński, were used to collect data. Statistical analysis was carried out using Statistica 13.3. TIBCO by StatSoft and Statistica 13.1 by StatSoft. The Mann-Whitney U test and Pearson's χ 2 test were used. Correlation was determined using Spearman's rank correlation coefficient. The level of statistical significance was adopted as p < 0.05. Results: Based on the CECS scale, the subjects scored an average of 51.4 points, indicating suppression of negative emotions. Parents of children with anorexia most often experienced anxiety, helplessness, fear, uncertainty, and tension. They experienced problems coping with daily responsibilities, fulfilling the role of mother/father, and pain. It was shown that the parents' age and the support obtained from medical personnel and family were not related to the control of negative emotions. Conclusions: Parents of children with anorexia or suspected anorexia experience many negative emotions and daily problems. Considering the expectations of caregivers and the proper provision of support, there is a need for professionals to assess their emotions prior to therapeutic interventions.

Bulimia nervosa (BN) has been observationally linked to the functional connectivity (FC) of large-scale brain networks, but the biological mechanisms remain unclear. This study used two-sample Mendelian randomization (MR) with genetic variations as instrumental variables (IVs) to explore potential causal relationships between FC and BN. Summary data from genome-wide association studies (GWAS) involving 2,564 individuals were analyzed to identify genetically predicted BN. Functional magnetic resonance imaging parameters and materials were sourced from the UK Biobank. The variables underwent independent component analysis processing by the database to generate the final GWAS dataset. Various methods, including MR Pleiotropy RESidual Sum and Outlier, MR Egger, and weighted median, were employed to detect heterogeneity and pleiotropy, with inverse variance weighting serving as the principal estimation method (P < 0.05). The FC imaging-derived phenotypes revealed that BN exerted a causal influence on the FC between large-scale networks, including the visual network, default mode network (DMN), frontoparietal network, somatosensory network (SSN), and ventral attention network. Additionally, BN had a causal impact on the within-network FC of both the DMN and SSN. The study provides evidence that BN leads to further changes in FC patterns within and between large-scale brain networks.
